Advanced Audio Coding (AAC) is a digital audio file format that reduces file size via lossy compression. Its primary uses are digital TV, digital radio, and Internet streaming. It is the standard audio format for iOS, YouTube, Nintendo, and Playstation. ISO/IEC designated the AAC codec as an improvement to MP3, due its ability to compress file size more efficiently while providing quality similar to uncompressed audio.
For best results, use VLC media player to open AAC files. Alternatively, AAC also opens by default in iTunes. AAC files are ubiquitous, however, and open in many other programs and software.
Additionally, since AAC files often serve as the audio files for video games, they open on most popular gaming consoles, such as Nintendo 3DS and Playstation 4.

iPad Audio is an M4A file prepared for Apple iPad, holding AAC-encoded audio inside an MPEG-4 container. AAC is Apple’s preferred audio codec because it sounds better than MP3 at an equivalent bitrate, and the iPad decodes it in hardware, which keeps battery use low during long listening sessions.
Tap the file on the tablet and it opens in the Music or Files app immediately. iPadOS supports M4A natively, so no third-party player is needed.
Transfer the file using the Finder on macOS, iTunes on Windows, iCloud Drive, or AirDrop. The same file also plays on a computer in iTunes, VLC media player, or Windows Media Player. If you need it on an older MP3 player or car stereo, our M4A to MP3 converter handles the change.
